An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Advanced Social Work Practitioner to work in our All Age Disability Service. You will manage a full caseload offering services to children and young people with severe learning disabilities and complex needs. In

addition to this you will undertake aspects of performance management, mentoring and coaching. You will be expected to chair meetings and support Social Workers with Court work and more complex cases. This role will involve undertaking supervision with ASYE Social Workers. Wirral has embraced the health integration agenda and our All Age Disability Service is likely to transfer to the NHS in 2018 in order to provide a joined up response to the children and young people we support. It is therefore likely that the successful candidate will commence their employment on NHS terms and conditions of service. We are also closely linked with our Adults with Disabilities Service to give better continuity to the most vulnerable people in our community.

You will need to be a qualified Social Worker with current HCPC registration. You will have experience of managing a caseload of complex disability cases. This will include Child in Need, Child Protection. Children in Care and Court work.
